So here is a try of something I have wanted to do for a long while and with totusmel blog and tat-ology's encouragement, I gave it a whirl, Armenian lace.
I can't see very well and skiped spaces and not sure if I like it.
I found this link that has many different kinds of Needle Lace Introductions Beside is a different style, the link is above.

ReplyDeleteThanks I had fun.
DeleteYour doily looks so beautiful!!! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, thank you for sharing, that bonsai is wonderful. Good job with the armenian lace, on tatting too! The doily is so pretty but very large, I've an excuse to not tat that, I've not a place for such a big doily!
ReplyDeleteReally. I know what you mean, it's a table cloth :)
DeleteKudos to you for giving it a whirl! I almost quit yesterday, but I'm back for more frustration today. : ))
ReplyDeleteFab pic of the bleeding heart snd a very cute one of you and the Hubs.
Thanks, I think I don't like it but want to try it again and need a book, I really thought I bought one and can't find it yet.
DeleteLovely pics & quite a diversified range ! And wow, you started the Armenian Lace :-))
ReplyDeleteAnd I can see your new trek shoes, too ;-p
Thanks I was wondering if anyone noticed :)
DeleteWow! Your doily is looking amazing! For some reason, your blog has not been showing up on my blog feed again. Sometimes technology is so frustrating! You and Fox are tempting me to try Armenian lace!
ReplyDeleteI know I have a couple that do that too and I don't know why. You really make me want to weave something too! :)
DeleteWow, looks like so much fun. We do have the white bleeding heart but the centers are not that red.
ReplyDeleteI took the picture because of that, It is a brilliant red.

Oh we just bought one a couple months ago and hoping it lives we have had very poor luck with them, but love to be able to care for one.
Deletethey have a class we are thinking of taking :)
I see you've been bitten by the Armenian Lace bug too! I'm going to watch you all, I don't want to take anything else on. I like your other pics too. We had a bleeding heart plant very like that, but it succumbed to frost.
ReplyDeletethis was inside in a green house. I took a couple more pictures of other things that I will post or mingle later with the tatting :) to make you all look :)
